"Ninety-nine bottles of beer" by David Short
The wall is a room. A bottle is a kind of thing. In the wall are 99 bottles.
To say how many:
say "[if no bottle is in the wall]no[otherwise][the number of bottles in the wall in words]".
To say how many in sentence case:
say "[how many]" in sentence case.
To sing the song:
if a bottle is in the wall
begin;
say "[How many in sentence case] bottle[s] of beer on the wall, [how many] bottle[s] of beer.
";
let the next one be a random bottle in the wall; silently try taking the next one;
say "Take one down and pass it round, [how many] bottles of beer on the wall.[paragraph
break]";
sing the song;
otherwise;
say "No more bottles of beer on the wall, no more bottles of beer.";
say "Go to the store and buy some more, ninety-nine bottles of beer on the wall!";
end the game saying "end of the song";
end if.
When play begins: sing the song. Use no scoring.

Instead of “[how many] bottles” it ought to say “[how many] bottle[s]”, as in the other line. Someone please correct it!
